Fbi, Lawyer, and Pressure: Aitan Goelman  PARTNER  Zuckerman Spaeder LLP  ZUCKERMAN  SPAEDER  June 19, 2018  Re:  Statement Regarding Employment Status of FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok  Just as he has been for the last 20 years, Pete Strzok remains a proud FBI agent who wants to continue  working to keep the American people safe  Pete has steadfastly played by the rules and respected the process, and yet he continues to be the target of  unfounded personal attacks, political games and inappropriate information leaks. All of this seriously  calls into question the impartiality of the disciplinary process, which now appears tainted by political  influence. Instead of publicly calling for a long-serving FBI agent to be summarily fired, politicians  should allow the disciplinary process to play out free from political pressure. Despite being put through a  highly questionable process, Pete has complied with every FBI procedure, including being escorted from  the building as part of the ongoing internal proceedings  Our leaders and the public should be very concerned with how readily such influence has been allowed to  undermine due process and the legal protections owed to someone who has served his country for so long.  Pete Strzok and the American people deserve better  Sincerely,  Aitan Goelman
